With the mother of all hangovers I was not in the best state to be sightseeing. Somewhere around 2, it could have been 3, I finally surfaced and headed out in need of food. One Calamari and chips later I was feeling ready for some simple sightseeing. Sydney Aquarium seemed like a good place to hide my hurting head and see all the required australian animals, mammals and fish in one hit.
Paltypus - tick
Funny long snake necked turtle thing
Saltwater Crocodile - tick
Some of the coral from the Great Barrier Reef - tick
Seahorse
More pretty Coral
Penguins!!
Marina, Aqua Marina...
Stingray!
Shark attack!
Shark attack!
Now I bought a joint ticket for Sydney aquarium and the Sydney Wildlife World. I can't say I was all that impressed with the latter. I think for seeing animals it was pretty poor, when there are several alternatives around where you could get closer to the animals. Still one more box was ticked in there...
Funnel Web Spider - tick
Some snakes and their old skin
I guess the most exciting part of this whole afternoon was the touching pool at the Aquarium. In there they had a young, small Port Jackson Shark, and I got to stroke it! Another tick.
